Consider the reactions: Identify A, X, Y, and Z.

  1. A
    A-Methoxymethane, X-Ethanol, Y-Ethanoic acid, Z-Semicarbazide
  2. B
    A-Ethanal, X-Ethanol, Y-But-2-enal, Z-Semicarbazone
  3. C
    A-Ethanol, X-Acetaldehyde, Y-Butanone, Z-Hydrazone
  4. D
    A-Methoxymethane, X-Ethanoic acid, Y-Acetate ion, Z-hydrazine

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. () can be Ethanol. Dehydrogenation with at gives Ethanal ().2. Ethanal () gives a positive Tollen's test (Silver mirror).3. Ethanal () undergoes Aldol condensation in base/heat to give But-2-enal ().4. Ethanal () reacts with semicarbazide to form Ethanal semicarbazone ().
